The hippocampus is thought to contribute to episodic memory by creating, storing, and reactivating patterns that are unique to each experience, including different experiences that happen at the same location. Hippocampus ...

Many salient visual events tend to coincide with auditory events, such as seeing and hearing a car pass by. Information from the visual and auditory senses can be used to create a stable percept of the stimulus. Having ...

Rat ultrasonic vocalizations have been suggested to be either a byproduct of physical movement or, in the case of 50-kHz calls, a means to communicate positive affect. Yet there are up to 14 distinct types of 50-kHz calls, ...

Degree of lateralization for grasping predicts the maturity of the language production system in young, typically-developing children. In this report we provide compelling evidence for the relationship between right hand ...

Damage to the hippocampus (HPC) using the excitotoxin N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) can cause retrograde amnesia for
contextual fear memory. This amnesia is typically attributed to loss of cells in the HPC. However, NMDA ...

Silent focal ischemic mini infarcts in the brain are thought to cause no clinically overt
symptoms. Some populations of hippocampal cells are particularly sensitive to ischemic
events, however, rendering hippocampal ...

Peripartum events hold the potential to have dramatic effects in the programming of physiology and behaviour of
offspring and possibly subsequent generations. Here we have characterized transgenerational changes in ...

Aldolase C, also known as Zebrin II (ZII), is a glycolytic enzyme that is expressed in cerebellar
Purkinje cells of the vertebrate cerebellum. In both mammals and birds, ZII is expressed heterogeneously,
such that there ...
